Food processing and preservation are essential components of the food industry that guarantee consumers can access safe, nourishing, and tasty food products. To address the needs of a population that is expanding worldwide, numerous processing and preservation procedures have been created and improved over time. The underlying ideas, contemporary innovations, and prospective effects of food processing and preservation techniques are examined in this review article. It goes into detail on the important approaches, their effect on food quality and safety, and how they help with sustainability and food security. The review also looks at the economic effects of food processing, analysing how it helps local economies, promotes global trade, and improves the food supply chain. The essay also examines the social and cultural aspects of food processing and preservation, taking into account their impact on dietary practises, culinary customs, and international food culture. This paper explores how food processing and preservation adapt to changing customer needs, such as the rising demand for convenience, organic alternatives, and clean label products, within the context of the always shifting food market landscape. Additionally, it discusses how technology and food preservation interact, emphasising how advancements like artificial intelligence, blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT) are changing the industry.In the end, this thorough assessment seeks to offer insightful perspectives into the complex world of food processing and preservation, highlighting the difficulties faced by the sector and pointing to a sustainable and prosperous future for food systems globally.
